Because of its particularity and role, Xunyang City is quite famous in the southeastern border. But it was not their wealth that made them famous, but their origins in a small tower.
Although it is "unremarkable in appearance", well, at least it is extremely inconspicuous in Xunyang City, which is full of wealth and wealth. However, its popularity is no less than that of Wuhui in the world, and it is a place sought by monks from the southeastern border.
What are the Five World Meetings, the Great Competition of Righteous Paths in the World, the Demonic Dragon Ascension Meeting, the Spring and Autumn Banquet, the Dragon Slaying List, and the exchange conference that Ningxia has attended before, are all rare grand ceremonies in the world of cultivation and are sought after by monks in the southeastern border. Xunyang City is the sixth grand ceremony.
Xunyang City's auction conference, also known as the Corner Tower Exhibition, is located in an old tower in the center of Xunyang City. At that time, monks from various sects invited from the southeastern border will gather here, in order to gather their favorite collections at this conference, as well as... marketable and priceless masterpieces.
This turret was originally used to tell the time. It is very old and existed when Xunyang City was not yet Xunyang City. Later, the original power was probably annihilated. The former inner city was destroyed in the war, and even the attached city wall turned into ashes over time and could not be found. Over a long period of time, a new city gradually took shape, which is the current Xunyang City.
The only remaining trace of the old forces is this isolated corner tower, telling the vicissitudes of history.
If you look closely, you will see that this turret has a classic appearance, a grand layout, and gilded details. The glaze on some parts of the building is still intact. It was supposed to be a glossy glaze made of special materials. It is said that under the moonlight, a layer of glistening light will float up, with a fine shimmer, and you can feel an illusory hazy beauty when you look at it.
But this is just a rumor, because no one in Ningxia has seen this beautiful scenery, so just listen.
Later, the turret was spotted by a wealthy man. The man was crazy about the turret, which was in a state of disrepair at the time, so he decided to buy the old building and use it for other purposes.
Ordinarily, the acquisition of such an ordinary turret should be easy. However, he really encountered a big obstacle.
Although the turret here is old and incompatible with the new and luxurious Xunyang City, the location is sensitive. Not only is it located in the central area, but it is also sandwiched between the strengths of several parties in the city. It cannot be said to be insensitive. Everyone wants it, but no one dares to take it. If they grab it, they will immediately start a war, so no one dares to take it.
Moreover, the turret itself is somewhat strange. Although it has lasted for many years, the main structure is extremely strong, as if it was imprisoned by some magic and special materials. No matter how hard the monks in the city try, they cannot dismantle it.
One of the most violent movements occurred ten thousand years ago, when the turret shook violently under the joint attack of several powerful people.
But what followed was an earth-shaking dizziness. Their souls seemed to be warned by some existence, as if they would cause some irreversible situation if they took any further step. At that time, everyone in Xunyang City felt it, and many monks with low cultivation levels even fell down under some kind of pressure.
The work of demolishing the tower was forcibly stopped, and no one dared to touch it again. It has also become a taboo place. Anyone with some respect in Xunyang City keeps this place secret, and no one wants to go there anymore.
How could such a place be easily taken down? Anyway, the wealthy businessman couldn't move around, and no one wanted to give up the corner building.
But there is always a way out. After all, he let the other party wait for the opportunity and took ownership of the turret in one fell swoop. It just took many years, countless time and energy, and a lot of money in spiritual stones. In the end, it was really not worth it to end up with such a turret that had no practical value.
But the rich man couldn't help but be happy. After he got what he wanted, he immediately renovated the interior and exterior of the turret according to his wishes, and tried his best to preserve the original appearance of the turret while maintaining the original elements.
After it was completed, he displayed the treasures he had collected throughout his life, turning the tower into his exclusive treasure trove. It is said that he has been stationed in this ancient tower all year round, looking down through the window from high up, watching the people coming and going, and watching the prosperity and decline of people.
The locked turret has become a legend on the other side for a long time that attracts exploration. Everyone was speculating that this wealthy businessman who didn't behave like a normal person was possessed by something. His thoughts and actions were completely out of the normal scope, and they were puzzled by his behavior as if he was following a demon.
No matter what, the legend of the wealthy businessman and the tower has been expanding, and various new theories are constantly being given birth to. until one day……
Something happened to the tower, and a wealthy businessman mysteriously disappeared inside. Everything happened so suddenly that even all the forces did not respond.
By the time they realized it, the battle for inheritance had come to an end, and it had come to a "perfect" end. The result was unexpected and unexpected, disappointing everyone, because there was no winner in this war.
On the night when the wealthy businessman died, several of his sons had a bloody battle over the inheritance. They are all cruel in scheming against each other, and they will not forget to trick each other until they die. In the end, I don’t know how it happened, but a strange combination of circumstances killed a whole family. That night, all the family members of the wealthy businessman died, as did the protagonist, relatives, servants, and all the livestock in the family.
The next day the body was found cold.
Now it's better, there's not even an heir. The huge family property of the wealthy businessman became ownerless and was naturally divided among everyone. This kind of turret that embodies the life-long efforts of its owner also fell into the hands of others, and he himself was hastily buried with a handful of loess and nothing.
It is pitiful that a generation of wealthy businessmen has fallen to this point. But I don't know how many people really feel sorry for him.
And the family that got the turret naturally took possession of tens of thousands of treasures. Everyone who sees it with their own eyes has only heard about it.
It wasn't until the Yuanshang Lin family, the family that had been stationed in the turret for hundreds of years after that incident, that was the original beneficiary, that they suddenly opened the lower three floors of the turret and exhibited part of the collection. It is said that they are rare treasures in the world of cultivation, and there are also extremely exquisite mortal works of art. It is said that people who went to the exhibition at that time were unable to recover for a long time after coming out.
What happened next involved a long history of changes in power and the rise and fall of the family. I'm afraid even they themselves couldn't explain it clearly, so it was inconvenient to describe it. All I know is that the Shangyuan Lin family has become the current Jiaolou Lin family. They have transformed from a family that majored in talismans to a well-known "merchant" in the world of cultivation.
It only opens once a year, opening the corner building that has been closed all year round, and inviting celebrities from all over the world to participate in the auction. But this is enough. Almost all the unowned treasures in the southeastern border will end up here, and then go to the hands of various sects.
